14:14 Then the Lord said to me, “Those prophets are prophesying lies while claiming my authority! 3  I did not send them. I did not commission them. 4  I did not speak to them. They are prophesying to these people false visions, worthless predictions, 5  and the delusions of their own mind.

[13:17]  1 tn Heb “set your face against.”

[13:17]  2 tn Heb “from their heart.”

[14:14]  3 tn Heb “Falsehood those prophets are prophesying in my name.” In the OT, the “name” reflected the person’s character (cf. Gen 27:36; 1 Sam 25:25) or his reputation (Gen 11:4; 2 Sam 8:13). To speak in someone’s name was to act as his representative or carry his authority (1 Sam 25:9; 1 Kgs 21:8).

[14:14]  4 tn Heb “I did not command them.” Compare 1 Chr 22:12 for usage.

[14:14]  5 tn Heb “divination and worthlessness.” The noun “worthlessness” stands as a qualifying “of” phrase (= to an adjective; an attributive genitive in Hebrew) after a noun in Zech 11:17; Job 13:4. This is an example of hendiadys where two nouns are joined by “and” with one serving as the qualifier of the other.

[23:16]  6 tn Heb “Yahweh of armies.”

[23:16]  7 tn The words “to the people of Jerusalem” are not in the Hebrew text but are supplied in the translation to reflect the masculine plural form of the imperative and the second masculine plural form of the pronoun. These words have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[23:16]  8 tn Heb “They tell of a vision of their own heart [= mind] not from the mouth of the Lord.”

[23:26]  9 sn See the parallel passage in Jer 14:13-15.
